 +===== The Linux Documentation Project =====
 +
 +[The Linux Documentation Project](http://www.tldp.org/sorted_howtos_full.html) is working towards developing free, high quality documentation for the Linux operating system:
 +
 +1. [subject-specific help](http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto)
 +2. [longer, in-depth books](http://www.tldp.org/guides.html)
 +3. [Frequently Asked Questions](http://www.tldp.org/FAQ/)
 +4. [help on individual commands](http://www.tldp.org/manpages/man.html)
 +5. [online magazine](http://www.tldp.org/LDP/LGNET/archives.html)
 +6. [additional documents of interest](http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#lf)
 +7. [work in progress](http://wiki.tldp.org/Page_Status)
 +
 +The overall goal of the Linux Documentation Project is to [collaborate in all of the issues of Linux documentation](http://www.tldp.org/manifesto.html).
 +
 +===== How to make a dual-boot into Windows put the “pagefile.sys” onto the linux-swap partition =====
 +
 +You can have Linux use a swap file instead of a partition. You can also have Windows (via something like SwapFS - see http://www.acc.umu.se/~bosse/ or the mirror at http://branten.se/nt/) use a swap partition and move your pagefile.sys to it.
 +
 +SwapFs is a driver for Windows that let you use a Linux swap partition for temporary storage, like a RAM-disk. It is possible to put Windows page file on it. It is implemented as a disk filter driver.
 +New in release 2.1 Works with swap partitions bigger than 4GB, works on 64-bit systems.
 +New in release 2: Works with standby and hibernation on Windows 2000/XP.
 +
 +You should also know that there are two files for the Windows operating system: the paging file (pagefile.sys) for swap and the hibernation file (hiberfil.sys), which stores the system state when the Windows operating system goes into "hibernate" mode.
 +
 +As mentioned in the swapfs.reg file, you should know that /dev/hda1 in Linux is equivalent to \\Device\\Harddisk0\\Partition1 in Windows NT. Please note that an extended partition number is skipped in the enumeration.
 +
 +So, if your partition is sda4, you should try with 
 +> `SwapDevice"="\\Device\\Harddisk0\\Partition4`
 +
 +and 
 +
 +> `S:"="\\Device\\Harddisk0\\Partition4`
 +
 +If it fails, you may need to write Harddisk1 instead of Harddisk0.
